Karatan Lab is located in the Department of Biology at Appalachian State University. The main focus of the reseach in our lab is biofilm formation in Vibrio cholerae. As a side project, we have also been studying microbial communities in disturbed high elevation wetlands.

We are always looking for enthusiastic graduate and undergraduate students to join the lab. Funding for a Master's degree is available to graduate students in the form of teaching assistantships and various fellowships. There is currently no funding available for undergraduates; however, these students can do research in the lab for independent study credit. If you are interested in joining the Karatan Lab please contact Ece Karatan.
